Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a synthesis method and application of H-type high-silicon sheet-like MOR zeolite molecular sieve, in particular to a process of preparing a catalyst from a hydrogen-type high-silicon sheet-like MOR molecular sieve and applying the catalyst to a dimethyl ether or methanol carbonylation reaction to produce methyl acetate, and belongs to the technical field of molecular sieve synthesis and application. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the dimethyl ether carbonylation reaction, although the H-type mordenite (HMOR) molecular sieve has unique pore structure, large specific surface area and strong acidity, etc., it still faces serious problems in practical application. The length of the molecular sieve channel significantly hinders the diffusion of raw materials and product molecules, leading to the accumulation of large molecular products (such as carbon deposition) in the channel, which enhances the rate of carbon deposition and further causes the rapid deactivation of the molecular sieve. At the same time, a large number of secondary reactions occur in the channel, which leads to a sharp decrease in reaction selectivity and affects the generation efficiency of the target product methyl acetate. As an important organic raw material intermediate, methyl acetate is widely used in the textile, perfume and pharmaceutical industries, so the catalyst deactivation and selectivity decline directly restrict its industrial application value.

[0003] Mordenite (MOR) is a one-dimensional large-pore zeolite with a framework composed of 12-membered ring (0.65 x 0.70 nm) and 8-membered ring (0.26 x 0.57 nm) channels along the c-axis direction, connected by 8-membered ring side pockets (0.34 x 0.48 nm). Studies have shown that the active center of dimethyl ether carbonylation reaction is located at the B acid site of the 8-membered ring, while the active site of the 12-membered ring is related to the deactivation of the zeolite. Specifically, the length of the c-axis of mordenite has an important influence on the reaction activity: although a longer c-axis can enrich CO and promote the carbonylation reaction, it is also prone to cause carbon deposition and catalyst deactivation. In addition, due to the narrow 8-membered ring channel along the c-axis direction, molecular diffusion is limited, making mordenite often exhibit one-dimensional channel characteristics in actual catalysis, further exacerbating the diffusion problem and deactivation phenomenon. Researchers have proposed strategies to synthesize nanoscale flake-shaped zeolites to shorten the channel length and enhance molecular diffusion. Specific methods include: using a double-template method or specific organic templates (such as double-headed quaternary ammonium salts, long-chain single-headed quaternary amines, etc.), through the synergistic effect or selective adsorption effect between templates, the growth direction of mordenite crystals is regulated, forming flake structures along the c-axis or b-axis. For example: literature (J. Mater. Chem. A, 2017, 5, 8887-8891) used long-chain single-headed quaternary amine to synthesize mordenite with a thickness of 20-40 nm along the c-axis. Patent CN107963637A used hexadecyl N-dimethyl ethyl-N, N dimethyl ammonium bromide as a template to synthesize flake-shaped mordenite with a c-axis thickness of 40 nm. Literature (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2020, 59, 6258-6262) used hexadecyl N dimethyl butyl N dimethyl benzyl amine as a template to synthesize flake-shaped mordenite with a thickness of 11 nm along the b-axis. Through low-pressure SiCl4 treatment (LPST), the proportion of framework aluminum in T3 sites is increased, and the catalytic performance is optimized. The introduction of additives: the introduction of specific molecules or ions (such as boric acid, KOH) can replace the position of aluminum or change the alkalinity, control the oriented growth of mordenite, and form flake-shaped crystals. These methods simplify the synthesis steps and effectively control the thickness and layer spacing of the flake. By directly synthesizing flake-shaped mordenite, it is expected to significantly improve the catalytic performance: the flake structure effectively shortens the length of the twelve-membered ring and eight-membered ring channels, greatly enhances the diffusion ability of raw material and product molecules, and reduces carbon deposition and secondary reactions. Flake-shaped mordenite exhibits better catalytic activity than traditional mordenite in dimethyl ether carbonylation reaction due to the high catalytic rate and good diffusion of the 8-MR side pocket acid center, with methyl acetate selectivity exceeding 99%, and significantly extending the catalytic life. Theoretical calculations show that the flake structure is stable and suitable for carbonylation, cyclization, and methanol-to-olefins (MTO) and other catalytic reactions.

[0004] However, in the above technical solutions, the synthesis method depends on a large number of complex and expensive organic structure directing agents, which increases the production cost and limits large-scale industrial application. In addition, the synthesized nanosheet MOR molecular sieve has a difficult-to-adjust silicon-aluminum ratio in a wide range, and the acid site distribution is not optimal, which requires complex post-processing. Direct synthesis of a mordenite with ideal nanomorphology and optimal acid site distribution is a major challenge that has not yet been solved. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, and directly synthesizes high-silicon sheet MOR zeolite molecular sieve by using a relatively small amount of long-chain dipiperidinium salt organic matter as an organic structure aid and combining with tetraethylammonium hydroxide as a main template agent, so as to enrich Al elements in the MOR zeolite molecular sieve structure octal ring, increase the number of B acid in the octal ring, and prepare HMOR zeolite molecular sieve with small grain morphology characteristic structure. When applied to the synthesis of methyl acetate by dimethyl ether carbonylation, the prepared HMOR zeolite molecular sieve has high catalytic activity, good product selectivity, simple preparation process and easy industrial amplification.

[0006] The present application uses TEAOH compound as an organic template agent and long-chain dipiperidinium salt organic matter as a crystallization aid, which is beneficial to the synthesis of sheet MOR zeolite molecular sieve, improves the kinetic diffusion effect of reaction molecules, improves the reaction stability, reduces irreversible adsorption, and prolongs the service life of the molecular sieve catalyst.

[0064] Table 1. B acid site content of eight-membered ring and twelve-membered ring of MOR molecular sieve synthesized in examples

[0065] As can be seen from Table 1, the analysis of the corresponding catalyst sample numbers VS-1 and VS-2 in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 shows that the eight-membered ring accounts for 53% to 58% of the total B acid amount, while the corresponding catalyst sample numbers HMR-1 to HMR-6 in Examples 1 to 6 are prepared by using TEAOH as the organic template and a long-chain dipiperidinium salt as the auxiliary template. In the hydrothermal synthesis, the twelve-membered ring pores are preferentially occupied due to the limitation of the molecular size, so that the Al atoms are more easily inserted into the eight-membered ring. A high crystallinity can be achieved in a short time, and the Al atoms can be controlled to be located in the eight-membered ring, so that the Al element is enriched in the eight-membered ring, the amount of B acid in the eight-membered ring is increased, and a catalyst more beneficial to the carbonylation of dimethyl ether / methanol is ultimately obtained.

[0066] Examples 7 to 14 The catalyst samples obtained in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 were prepared into catalyst particles for evaluation of the dimethyl ether carbonylation reaction: 1) A fixed bed reaction tube with an inner diameter of 10 mm and a length of 530 mm was used, and the length of the reaction furnace was 400 mm. 4 g of the shaped catalyst (20-40 mesh) was loaded into the constant temperature section of the reactor, and quartz sand was loaded above and below the catalyst.

[0067] 2) The catalyst was heated according to the following programmed temperature conditions under a N2flow of 50 ml / min: room temperature for 5 h→ 360℃ for 6 h→ stop heating→ purging to reduce to 230℃.

[0068] 3) Pyridine was brought in by nitrogen, 230℃ for 3 h→ 280℃ for 3 h→ 280℃→ stop pyridine introduction. Switch to high-purity N2to purge the excess pyridine attached to the catalyst.

[0069] 4) The raw materials were a mixture of dimethyl ether (DME), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2), with DME / CO / H2=5 / 35 / 60 (volume ratio), the volume space velocity GHSV was 3000 mL / (gcat•h), the reaction pressure was 2.0 MPa, and the reaction starting temperature was 200℃. The reaction was carried out from top to bottom through the catalyst bed. Continuous operation was carried out, and the reaction results were detected after running for 15 h and 25 h. The gas products after the reaction were analyzed online by Agilent 7890A gas chromatograph, and the effluent of the reactor was analyzed online by gas chromatograph equipped with a thermal conductivity detector TCD and a flame ionization detector FID.

[0070] The conversion of dimethyl ether (DME) and the selectivity of methyl acetate (MA) were calculated based on the carbon molar number of dimethyl ether: Dimethyl ether conversion rate = [(carbon molar number of dimethyl ether in raw gas) - (carbon molar number of dimethyl ether in product)] ÷ (carbon molar number of dimethyl ether in raw gas) x (100%); The selectivity of methyl acetate = (2 / 3) x (the carbon molar number of methyl acetate in the product) ÷ [(the carbon molar number of dimethyl ether in the raw material gas) - (the carbon molar number of dimethyl ether in the product)] x (100%).

[0071] Table 2: Results of dimethyl ether carbonylation reaction catalyzed by H-MOR zeolite molecular sieve prepared by the method of examples and comparative examples

This shows that the catalyst provided by the present application has good catalytic activity and selectivity of dimethyl ether carbonylation reaction to generate methyl acetate.

[0073] The conversion rate of dimethyl ether carbonylation and the selectivity of methyl acetate of the MOR zeolite molecular sieve catalyst prepared by the method of examples provided by the present application are >45% and >99% respectively at TOS=100h, while the conversion rate and the selectivity of methyl acetate of the catalyst VS-1 and VS-2 prepared by the method of comparative examples are <33% and <97.5% respectively at TOS=100h. The conversion rate of dimethyl ether carbonylation and the selectivity of methyl acetate are >41% and >99% respectively at TOS=200h, while the conversion rate and the selectivity of methyl acetate of the catalyst VS-1 and VS-2 prepared by the method of comparative examples are <31% and <97.0% respectively at TOS=200h.
